    Read this http://cstar_useast.tripod.com/
    It's a pretty good article and for those who feel offended by it, change the way you are on B.net. I totally agree with this guy, he might be a little negative but it's all true.

    Anyway. Read this and use it advices. If you want a game of SC - BW catch me on Sorcerers chatroom.

    Pfeh. I too disagree with the behavior of many people online, especially (in my experience) with Starcraft, but the author has just stooped to the same level of attacks and insults as the people who hate "laging n00bs who sux0r".

    I just don't feel that this article really serves a point; it's rude, but it advises people not to be rude.

    Anyways, you can sometimes find the right people online. Just look at SP. And if you believe that everyone who plays on Battle.Net is a jerk, well, thanks for the compliment (from yours truly). Just play with your friends, or people you consider to be polite (like, of course, the lot at SP).

    I don't say "every" person does that, and it refers to those "who do" it. I haven't been playing on battle.net for that long and my words wasn't meant to be offending.

    I once made a game (Turret Wars, dunno if ye know that one) and people joined for some instant action. The first who joined yelled GO GO GO GO instantly and I had to boot him so I could read what other people said. Other people joined, my team I might add. I don't know why they prefer my team. Then when we started the game. One on the other team yelled something like "BWAHAHHAHA" and left. I think he tried to ruin the fun for the rest of us. I then asked a friend of mine, who was on my team, to leave. He understood and left.

    It's just one of way too many confronts with people acting rather.. lame as they say. I'm always nice on B.net (I hope) and like to help newbies because we all started at that stage. But why are so many ruining the fun? I thought that guide would just open someones eyes and say "Okay, I get the point. I won't act stupid and lame again". It's not that people in here are like that but, ah well. It's just fun reading sometimes and maybe they'll pass it on to some friends of their who'll pass it on and so on. Pain is sometime the only way to make people realize what they are doing is stupid. This is some wise words, rather rude yes, to make people realize what they are doing is wrong before the pain. Or something.. yes...

    I've just seen to many people who'll ruin the fun for others (There are actually FPS clans who got the motto: We love to annoy) and just want to state that what they do is wrong etc.
